As
neurotic as Crumpet was acting it would be hard to suggest that this
was abnormal, for Crumpet, to put it bluntly, was generally as
nervous as the man who just began to doubt whether he had given the
arsenic tea to his wife or picked it up himself.

His
tail flicked from side to side anxiously as he drummed his claws on a
small boulder besides him. He sat beneath the undergrowth avidly
pondering the plan of action. He knew very little of the mission
itself as yet, just his small part in it.

Barry
had been sat, considerably bored for quite some time. The game of
'stare at the wall until it begins to tap dance' was becoming
marginally uninteresting and ended in failure as per usual. Although
there was one instance when Geoff was on holiday leaving Kev, his
teenage son to his own devices. During a large mid week party Barry
found himself sat with a few dubious looking youths in a smoke filled
room, upon playing 'stare at the wall until it begins to tap
dance', he, for the first time in 2 years, succeeded. In his
excitement Barry proceeded to go outside and eat the garden gnome.All
in all the whole concept of the game was beginning to wear thin. His
ears pricked up as he heard the screeching of a car out side, he
began to growl at sound of the slamming door. Concentrating hard
Barry began too swagger from side to side, his nose half an inch from
the door frame. An unfamiliar voice came from the hallway. Barry
found this prospect exiting; this was a great opportunity to
participate in a game of 'run as hard as possible at the stranger
to see their reaction' The game is popular again amongst youngsters
of the species. Mostly those who have been influenced by the older
dogs due to the games implication on the perceived intelligence of
the species. Also because dogs have a tendency to exploit the
gullible for their own amusement.

Most
dogs at some point or other would begin to wonder why they didn't
just play more fun games, the ones that make them look less like
idiots... and are considerably more entertaining. Now was Barry's
time.
